    What a complete moron. What a complete asshole. How does he hope to progress? By beating up his sparring partner? The guy is a fucking moron. If I had gotten stretched by a Japanese scarecrow then this is the last thing I would be doing. Trying to make up for the hole in his ego by bashing a sparring partner.

    REED's Favorite Part is when Ann Wolfe BEATS Kirkland w/the Towel, for DARING to Fall Off Balance:lol:...

    For Better or Worse, this Video is WHO James Kirkland is...He's a HARDCORE Dude...He Spars just like he FIGHTS...He TRAINS Hardcore...His TRAINER is Hardcore...Wolfe is CONSTANTLY Looking for Fresh Partners for Kirkland Because of how HARD he Goes...Golden Boy has to Fly In Guys Frequently...As "AssholeISH" as it May Look, Kirkland Expects LIKEWISE from Whomever he's in there w/...He DOESN'T Cry, Bitch, Moan or Ask for Timeout when his Sparring Partner is Getting the Better of the Action...

    And he's Always Respectful of the Dudes he Works w/...Kirkland just Fought in a Dallas Suburb a Couple Months Ago, on a Brian Vera Undercard....To See them Together, U'd have Thought Kirkland and Vera were THE BEST of Friends...Nonetheless, Kirkland Beat the Living Shit Out of Vera a Couple Years Ago...

    Who's this guy? Seems like a punk. Should try to pull that sh*t in an MMA dojo and see how quickly he gets choked out like a bitch and is waving for a stoppage.:laugh11:

    If anybody takes the blame here, it's Wolfe, not Kirkland.

    Poor dude lost about half his brain cells and nearly snapped his neck taking uppercuts, headgear or not.

    Must be a tough guy though, cause he kept on fighting back.

    Wolfe has serious issues. Personally and professionally. Professionally, Kirkland isn't going to learn a damn thing doing what he is doing in sparring. Herbie Hide used to do that with his partners and we know how that panned out.

    Personally, Wolfe just strikes me as being badly adjusted. She seems to have a lot of holes in her life. She always seems to be fronting over something. Maybe she heard that Caster Semenya has a bigger clit than she does. Who knows.

    Some Trainers R of the Opinion that if U PRACTICE/SPAR @ Half Speed, U'll PLAY/FIGHT @ Half Speed...Wolfe is 1 of those Trainers...Whether it's "Right or Wrong" Remains to B Seen, as Kirkland is UNDEFEATED w/Wolfe, Against a Decent Crop of Fighters...

    Personally, What U SEE is what U GET from Ann Wolfe...Her T.V. Persona is GENUINELY Who she Is...Though Very Nice & Accomodating, Ann Also has a Clear EDGE to her...And a POTTY Mouth...

    I have no problem with people training as they see fit. Nigel Benn, for instance, never used to spar, at all. He preferred to hammer himself into shape instead doing floor exercises etc. His attitude was that he wasn't going to spar with the same intensity that he fought, and his sparring partner wasn't going to fight with the same intensity as his upcoming opponent, so why bother.

    But what does Kirkland hope to learn from bashing a defenceless sparring-partner in the face?? Spar hard, by all means, but there is nothing gained from hitting defenceless people. Might as well do an extra few rounds on the bag.

    good riddance.

    I'm not for banning people usually, but he was becoming reallly annoying, always repeating the samee 2 shit (ufc, floyd) over and over again. Anyway, the guy was clearly trying to get banned

    exactly

    The only thing that was really out of place is when he his the guy when he asked for a break, but that seemed more like a spur of the moment thing than something delibarate. It's not like the sparring partner didn't knew how hard kirkland goes in sparring, and he was also throwing hard shots at kirkland

    I don't see the big deal as his opponent didn't seem to pull any punches and seemed to know what he was getting into. As REED said, that's how it is with Wolfe and Kirkland, if fighters don't want to spar that way, they just need to stay home and wait for another camp to call them.

    I agree with the basic tenet....this is not a tea-party, its not a picnic....but there does come a point where no advantage is gained by hitting a guy who is clearly offering up less and less in the line of a competitive spar. It looks bad and no advantage is gained, so why bother? Might as well switch to the heavy bag at that point. It merely adds to the already well-established impression that Kirkland is just a front-running bully.

    slugging the guy when he is asking for a break is cheap and dirty

    That's just one side of it. The other side is that you don't learn anything either.

    I was referencing the idea in this thread that its no big deal to throw a haymaker at a guy with his hands down asking for a break

    Yes, I know, I was just adding that even if it was considered fair-game, where is the point to doing it? You can throw free, cheap shots at the punch bag, and a punch bag is one-off purchase. No need to pay it €300 a week. Then again James never struck me as the brightest dude.

    Exactly...

    Guys R Forewarned that Kirkland DOESN'T "Go Light" in Sparring & they're even ENCOURAGED to Match his Intensity...When Kirkland's Getting the WORST of a Session, it's NOT like he Bitches or Moans about it...

    I like a fighter who spars hard like that....and I like a fighter that genuinely wants to KO his opponent. You think Tyson didn't abuse his sparring partners????

    Abuse is just that. Abuse. It suggests using something for what it wasn't originally intended. I have no problem with hard sparring. No problem. But if the sparring partner is basically past it, can't offer up any more resistance, where is the point???

    Not surprising that Kirkland is not progressing and got his ass knocked out by some bean pole scrub. Sparring is supposed to be work, not just beating the shit out of some helpless novice. How do you get better when the guys you're sparring are obviously not even close to your level? Where are the videos of Kirkland getting good work? If this is how his sparring always is, the guy will never improve. Love the "Kirkland Spars a heavyweight" Video. Did they just walk down the street and grab the first fat dude they could find? That guy has no business in there.

    Most of the "Good" Sparring Partners DON'T Want the Sessions Videotaped & Subsequently LEAKED...Kirkland's Sparred w/BIGGER Guys like Chris Henry & Solid Pro's like Ishe Smith...It's NOT like he's just Dragging Hapless Foes off the Street...
